  • Name James LUDKIN 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born 27 Oct 1807 
    • 1851 shows birthplace as "Arland, Norfolk".  No such place found - could be mis-hearing of Larling which would tie in with being son of James and Sarah, or I now suspect (having found his baptism), a mis-hearing / mis-pronunciation of "Harling".
    Baptised 4 Nov 1807  St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church, East Harling, Norfolk, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2, 3, 4

    Notes 
    • I have no evidence that this James is son of James and Sarah Bussey; seems likely a close relation at least.
      Living in Bridgham with I guess wife and their 4 children in 1841.
      In Fleet, Lincolnshire in 1851 with a different wife. No children from 1841 census found.  Age and occupation suggest the same James.

    • From PR entry (viewed in Norfolk RO)
      James shown as single, Sarah as spinster.
      Both made their marks; witnesses were Martha Precious
      and John Bussey (also made marks)

      There was a Martha Precious (nee Hart) marr to Jonathan had children bapt in Larling 1778 and 1784

      If James was the one baptised in Carleton Rode in 1752 then I think his brother John was probably dead, but the witness could well have been a nephew.

      (I'm not sure if "received into church" was followed by a squiggle or a line where it was intended the dates was added; I suspect the former, as nearly all the baptisms on the page were private, a number of other entries had the same, but in no case was a date given that the person was received into the church.)
